Two
activists of the Young Front opposition movement were detained on 27 October in
the town of Miory,
Vitsebsk region, following the wedding ceremony of Young Front member Mikola
Dzemidzenka.

Raman
Vasiliyeu and Zmitser Kremianetski were charged with disorderly conduct under
Art. 17.1 of the Administrative Code. Human rights defenders fear the
detentions were aimed at isolating the activists ahead of the traditional
Dziady feast to commemorate the dead, which currently attracts much public
attention as a political event.
